Story is it comes from the later porsche 944 called a 96? in the turbo s
version supposedly with only 20 or so made for europe and 1 in US. This was
what I was told, but either way it functions very well  for the app. When I
asked Ola about the turbo he vaguely remembered it, that is all I know - more
lore for the Davie Jones mysteru. It was supposed to be one of only a few,
but who really cares. 750 cfm  at whatever pressure ratio should be good for
500 hp whatever flavor of turbo. I certainly dont feel my setup is optimized,
nor do I have the cash to have 10-15 custom turbos to do so. It is however a
kkk hotside, and does have a 58mm exducer  diam.. I have the name and address
of some German turbolader dealers if you want to check with them. I probably
will change turbos when I get the new intake anyway so I will pull the #'s
then. If they are like everything else Audi hi perf. then the #'s will prob.
be ground off.
